Find a Chaplain

Barrow RNLI Chaplain the Rev Martin Williams baptises a crew member's son on board their lifeboat.

Chaplains are in the front line of our Christian ministry to the wider world.

Across the county there are those who work in our hospitals, prison, universities, agricultural sector, tourism, schools and colleges. They are in a unique position to provide pastoral support to staff in their workplace, to patients, inmates, farmers and students in their daily lives and difficult times, and may offer worship services in conveniently-located chapels. And reflecting Cumbria's status as England's first ecumenical county, chaplains often work in cross-denominational teams.
